Singing Bliss Concepts

Singing Bliss understands that you are a human being, like any other human being, when it comes to how your body breathes in air and out and how your vocal cords vibrate for you to sing. This is the science of voice, or "vocal pedagogy." Singing Bliss uses the science of voice to help you learn to sing. Singing Bliss uses the knowledge of "vocal pedagogy" to help you play your singing instrument - your body.

Singing Bliss understands that you are a unique individual. You mind and body are unique to you. Your voice is unique to you. The way your mind sends messages to your body is unique to you. Emotions in you are unique. How these emotions play your singing instrument - yourself - is unique. You are a living singing instrument. The understanding of you as a person is part of learning to sing. Your breath in and out of your body and your singing voice respond to how you are as a unique human being.

Singing Bliss Process

Using the concept of voice science or "vocal pedagogy" and the concept of you as a unique individual, Singing Bliss takes these concepts and gives you, the live singing, unique human you are, a step-by-step learning process for you to practice.
